hey there ya'll, my one month old plants have a few things going on .i dont use any fertilizers, but i did try coffee grounds for N. im pretty sure it may have something to do with the soils PH(seeing as i've never tested it). and i know coffee will make the soil more acidic. as far as the canoeing & clawing goes, could my plants be root bound? not sure because my biggest plant shows no symptoms? also for a while i was using lights underneath the plant as well until i read it wasnt good for the plant. the white spot on the leaf has been there for about a week and a half, but hasnt gotten any larger, what could this be? thanks for the help!:smokin:

They could be rootbound, it's impossible to tell from those pictures. There's a troubleshooting form in my signature, get it filled and post the details in this thread to get more detailed advice into what might be causing your problems. Also, knowing your pH is important, so you'll need to find a way to at least get a good estimate. If you can't afford a pH pen, or one of the more accurate testers, at least try to get your hands on an aquarium pH kit to get a general idea.
Take care. :jointsmile:
